Pistachio Jar Dessert

My husband is a Pistachio lover, nuts, pies, cakes, muffins, puddings, anything Pistachio. Today I am surprising him with this Pistachio Jar Dessert, I know he will love it! This is a very easy dessert to make and of course I had to taste it, oh my it is delicious, real creamy with a nutty crunch and the flavor of a cracker give it a great contrast, topping it off with a big twirl of whipped cream and a garnish of nuts.

What a lovely dessert, Miz Helen! I have a real weakness for pistachio and have been known to bring back pistachio pudding mixes with me from the US when I travel (we can't get it here in the UK). Your recipe sounds so creamy and luscious - no wonder Leonard and Max loved it so much! Thank you for sharing it with us at the Hearth and Soul hop - pinned and will tweet. Have a lovely weekend!

This looks really good. I love pistachio. I know a while back I made a cake with pistachio pudding mix. My sister in law called in Watergate cake. I really liked it, so this will just hit the right taste, I know. Thanks, you are some cook.
